$1.15million So You Think Filly Sets New Benchmark

Tara Madgwick - Monday April 7

So You Think posted his best ever sales result at Inglis Easter on Sunday when his stunning filly from Group I VRC Oaks winner Personal sold for $1.15million.

$1.15 million So You Think filly from Personal.

Bred and sold by Coolmore, the filly was snapped up by Glentree Thoroughbreds / Badgers Bloodstock and is the first foal of Personal, who raced in the Coolmore navy blue.

By champion sire Fastnet Rock, she was purchased by Tom Magnier from the Cressfield draft at Inglis Easter back in 2019 for $640,000 and won over $1.2million with multiple Group I placings to compliment her VRC Oaks victory.

Personal produced a filly by I Am Invincible and then missed, so will be fresh for an early cover later this spring.
